The origin of moon cakes is as follows:
1. As early as the Yin and Zhou Dynasties, there was a kind of "Taishi cake" in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces to commemorate Taishi Wenzhong, which may be the embryonic form of moon cakes. In Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian introduced sesame seeds from the western regions, which enriched the varieties of cake bait. At this time, a kind of big round cake engraved with characters appeared, that is, moon cakes.
2. During the Tang Dynasty, on the evening of August 15th, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Yang Guifei enjoyed the moon and ate Hu cakes. Xuanzong thought the name Hu Bing was not pleasant to hear, so he changed it to "moon cake". In the Northern Song Dynasty, Su Dongpo once wrote the poem "Small cakes are like chewing the moon, with satiny in the crisp", which shows that moon cakes have become very popular in the Song Dynasty.
In Ming dynasty, moon cakes became the necessary food for Mid-Autumn Festival. According to historical records, making moon cakes had become a profession at that time, and a large number of different kinds of moon cakes appeared in the market. In the Qing Dynasty, on the Mid-Autumn Festival night in Yue Bai, the mother ate moon cakes and watched the moon with her little son in her arms. She tied the moon cakes with red lines and hung them around the child's neck, symbolizing the hope that the child would be safe and healthy.
